Thank you Dennis. I remember you from the eighties working with child poets and the lady poet Muriel and also the shattering groundbreaking show Contragate...it's such a gift to hear a poet who is also a news reporter. If every reporter were a poet, then finally more meaningful poetry might have a chance to be heard, and attended to...and its a great gift to us you've written some of them! Gut shattering moving stuff. Think you for a lifetime of life-changing gifts!
